Today, Wydad Athletic is witnessing new developments regarding the future of its striker Suleiman Mualimo, as the coming days seem to carry a decisive decision about his stay or departure. Press reports reveal that Tanzanian club Simba has intensified its efforts to sign the player permanently, presenting an enticing financial offer amounting to 250 million centimes, after the loan negotiations that were previously proposed stalled. This latest offer reflects the Tanzanian club’s determination to benefit from Mualimo’s services in the new football season.
The story began with a preliminary agreement between Simba and the previous Wydad administration to renew Mualimo’s loan for another season in exchange for 50 million centimes. However, Simba’s failure to pay the agreed amount by July 28 led the current Wydad management to cancel the loan deal. This development unsettled Simba’s plans and pushed them to seek alternative solutions, resulting in the submission of the latest offer to sign him outright.
Meanwhile, Wydad’s management rejected Simba’s initial offer of 200 million centimes, which prompted the Tanzanian club to raise the offer by an additional 50 million centimes, making the total 250 million centimes. Simba officials hope this offer is enough to convince the “Red Team” to let go of their striker, who is considered one of the prominent players in Wydad’s lineup.
Attention now turns to the Portuguese coach Paulo Sérgio, the new head coach of Wydad Athletic, who will decide the fate of Suleiman Mualimo. The club has asked the player to join the team’s training sessions, awaiting the coach’s final decision, which will be based on his technical evaluation of the player and the team’s needs for the upcoming season. It seems that resolving Suleiman Mualimo’s case will be one of the new coach’s priorities.
